Here's some very awesome news for you Tiki mug collectors out here...
(To skip the jibba-jabba and get to the point, jump to my website pronto: http://www.KahunaKevin.com)

My debut limited edition Kahuna Kevin Tiki mug launch is finally creeping forward from the concept art stage to reality. Mid 2013 I commissioned legendary So-Cal artist & friend Kray of http://www.triplexskateboards.com to design my mug artwork. In 2014 after much back and forth chatter, waiting, pulling hair out, calling Kray nasty words (it's how we work), he finally completed this OUTSTANDING concept work:

Since August 2014, mug guru http://www.TikiDiablo.com has been painstakingly sculpting Kray's 2D concept into the real deal and it's finally far enough along to show alongside Kray's concept. It still needs some details, a kraken tentacle, but Tiki Diablo is doing a FANTASTIC job transforming clay into an almost exact reproduction of Kray's work (Kray even gave his thumbs up and he's one difficult bastard to please). Here's the most recent in-progress shot (early September) from Tiki Diablo:

This mug can be Pre-Ordered via my website right now at http://www.KahunaKevin.com both domestically and internationally. All mug numbers are determined by order queue - the earlier you order, the lower your number. Please visit my website for more details, estimated time until completion, and as always my two cocktail books are still available for purchase in the store (YES, I'm working on a Volume 3).

Oh, and I also won this nifty award my first time at Tiki Oasis 2014 which was pretty awesome! Thanks everyone, and I hope to see you at the upcoming 2014 South SF Bay Area Home Tiki Bar Crawl, Tiki Oasis 2015 and the local Nor-Cal Tiki bars. Take care and thanks for your continued support of my crazy projects! -KK
